SFCSC Family and Friends Golf Tournament

Jun 05, 2014

On May 30, supporters of Southern Frontenac Community Services were welcomed by blue skies at the organization’s annual Golf Tourney fundraiser, which was held again at the Rivendell Golf Club in Verona. Proceeds from the event go towards funding the many seniors’ programs that run out of the SFCSC's Grace Centre in Sydenham. The $80 ticket for the tournament included 18 holes of golf, green fees and a cart, plus dinner.

A total of 28 teams, comprised of 100 individual golfers, participated. This year there was also a new event, a $2 for three tries putting contest where participants could win half of the contest’s proceeds for the day. Ally Dickson, administrative assistant with the SFCSC, and family services worker Sarah Cring manned the putting contest and invited golfers a chance at the winnings.

Dickson said she was grateful for the continued support from local area and Kingston businesses who once again stepped up to the plate this year and donated their goods and services to help put on the annual fundraiser. “We really rely on the donors and the golfers to be able to continue to grow our services and we are very appreciative to them for stepping up and supporting this annual event.”
